The University of Chicago has launched an Asian summer internship program sponsored by the school trustee Mr. Francis Yuan and his wife Rose. The “Yuen Metcalf Internship Program” will provide internship opportunities and cross-cultural experiences for students from the University of Chicago undergraduate students in Hong Kong and other Greater China districts.
The University of Chicago trustee, Mr. Francis Yuen, said, “The Yuen Metcalf internship program will increase the opportunities for students to connect with Asia. I hope that the program will help students to seize the opportunities in the region, utilize their academic prowess and accelerate their professional development.”
John W. Boyer, dean of the University of Chicago’s undergraduate school, said that the internship program is designed to help students connect with the Asian business community, let them apply what they have learned from UChicago, and exercise meticulous and innovative thinking into the real workplace environment.
The Jeff Metcalf Internship Program is a flagship internship program for undergraduate students at the University of Chicago. There were more than 2,800 Metcalf internships this year, and 230 students were assigned to internships in Asia this summer, 113 of whom were sponsored by Yuan. Compared with the 149 Asian internships in the previous academic year, the internship opportunities for this school year increased by 54%.
